Anyone else using SURUNAS for SmartUpgrade to 8.0.2 from 8.0.1. Our users are getting an error message when the upgrade completes. The message states “File does not exist: Files\lotus\notes\notes.exe”. The user clicks on OK and the message goes away. The N8 client comes up and the user is able to work. Any ideas?
Subject: Re:
IS this an one time error, or does this happen everytime Notes is started?
Is the shortcut pointing to the right directory?
With Regards,

Subject: I have the same error
I get the same error, but I am not using the SURUNAS utility. I am using Smart Upgrade to upgrade clients from 8.0.1 to 8.0.2. They get the error, click OK and seem to be working fine.
Subject: I Had this too
The problem is descibed here:http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=899&uid=swg21212400
I installed Lotus Notes with the SUSetRunAsWizard.exe and used a domain admin for installation (SUSetRunAsWizard.exe asks you for an user). The problem is that some registry keys are missing (because the setup is running as admin not user) and the setup machanism is searching for them. So I changed the installation mechanism. I created a cmd file (Windows command) an entered this:
reg add “HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Lotus\Notes\Installer” /v NOTESVERSION /t REG_SZ /d “080001” /f
\PATH TO LOTUS NOTES SETUP\setup.exe /s /v"TRANSFORMS=\PATH TO LOTUS NOTES MSTFILE\custom.mst AllUsers=1 /qb+"
This command file is executed by the SUSetRunAsWizard exe instead of the setup.
So the missing key is generated and after this the setup is executed.
My setup finishes without any error.
